My genealogy paper consists of a single folder, and a couple books I got from my aunt. The papers in the folder are all from high school, in my very amateur genealogist days. I just haven&#39;t gotten around to transferring it to the computer yet.<br /><br />But everything I find now is instantly added to the appropriate WikiTree profiles, so the only time I have trouble finding a source is if the source is actually in the person&#39;s child&#39;s profile, or something, and I forgot to add it to the parents&#39; profiles as well.LianneLavoiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10426150893408223206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-55306294275258344582012-07-25T10:01:39.693-07:002012-07-25T10:01:39.693-07:00Randy, I would like your permission to use excerpt...Randy, I would like your permission to use excerpts from your &quot;The best laid plans...&quot; article in my &quot;Tacking Tough Genealogy Tasks with 21st Century Technology&quot; lecture. I type about 98 wpm with a two percent error factor, but only have about one fourth of my research in my computer. The other three fourths is exactly in the same condition as your research--notebooks and hanging files on paper!Barbara Renickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15707257916386176881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-24480325119577363622012-07-23T17:26:32.679-07:002012-07-23T17:26:32.679-07:00Sometimes the most innocous family history questi...Sometimes the most innocous family history question from my husband can derail me for days. If I think I&#39;ve got the answer in my stacks I can&#39;t rest until I find it.<br /><br />I&#39;m fortunate, I think, I only have about 1300 individuals in each of my two databases. I am in the process now of re-writing my sources - and re-researching as necessary - my databases to the GPS prior to going &#39;on the clock&#39; for certification. It&#39;s a great exercise that is adding immensely to my database and raising some new, in-depth questions that need answering.<br /><br />We&#39;ve all heard the saying...&quot;fastest way to make G*d laugh is to make plans&quot;.
